I got the exact same reply.Banning public use of navgatible waterways (i.e. swimming or diving in open waters near a structure)is not a logical answer,is is flat out illegal,because it is a navagatible waterway.Wouldn't lakefront owners and riverfront owners just love a law like this.They could block access to canoes and boats to waterways going thru their properties.Seems to me a guy tried this up in the U.P. on a river.Downed trees across a river,put cables across the river,in an attempt to deny access to canoes. He was ruled against.This is an equal access issue,and divers are going to be denied it.DIVER DESCRIMINATION!
